Ostrich eggs are the largest of all eggs and can weigh up to three pounds. They are oblong in shape and have a tough leathery shell. The shell is pale blue-green in color and covered with small bumps.
To cut an ostrich egg you will need a sharp knife and a cutting board. Start by tapping the egg all over with the back of the knife. This will help the knife to get through the shell more easily. Next make a small cut in the top of the egg about 1 inch from the pointy end. Wiggle the knife around a bit to make the opening larger.
Now begin slicing the egg lengthwise being careful not to cut into the yolk. Once you have made a few lengthwise cuts you can start cutting the egg into quarters or eighths. Be sure to keep the yolk intact as you cut.
If you want to serve the ostrich egg sliced you can do so now. If you want to eat it as an omelet or scrambled eggs you will need to break the yolk and mix it with the egg whites. To do this make a small hole in the center of the yolk with your knife and then stir it around until it is broken up.
When you are ready to cook the ostrich eggs heat some butter or oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook them until they are firm and cooked through. Enjoy!
